Bryson DeChambeau plans to chase down Cameron Smith and Talor Gooch with glory at LIV Golf Jeddah

JEDDAH: In-form Crushers GC Captain Bryson DeChambeau is relishing a chance to capture another title at the upcoming regular-season finale at LIV Golf Jeddah presented by ROSHN.

The big-hitting superstar and 2020 US Open winner is aiming to become the 2023 LIV Golf Individual Champion in Saudi Arabia — and heads to the Middle East full of confidence following a late surge that saw victory in LIV Golf Chicago in the last event.

DeChambeau is on a run of hot form this summer — the highlight including becoming the fourth player on a top-level tour to shoot 58, to capture his first LIV Golf title at Greenbrier in August.

“It’s a cliche but I just kept trying to hit as many fairways as I could and hit the irons close and make some putts. When I’m on a roll like that, I get serious momentum like a train and it’s hard to stop. You just have to take advantage of moments when you’re in the zone like that as it doesn’t happen often,” he added.

Ripper GC Captain Cameron Smith and RangeGoats GC star Talor Gooch are the only other golfers with a mathematical chance of claiming the title, which will be decided in Jeddah at the Royal Greens Golf & Country Club.

Australian star Smith tops the Individual standings with 170 points, while Gooch is at 162 points and DeChambeau at 146 points following his
